You should visit the bank where you opened the CD and carry the CD document that they gave you when you opened the deposit. You need to submit this with a customer service officer in the bank and request to liquidate it. The bank will ask you the details of the bank account into which the funds need to be deposited and once you provide that, the bank will close/liquidate your CD and deposit the money into your bank account
Try Bank of America, they have good CD rates for new customers.
Sure you can. It's your money and your account and you can close it anytime you wish. However, if you are closing your deposit account before its intended maturity date the bank can charge you a small penalty on the interest component for doing so. But the original money you deposited will not be touched and will be refunded in full when you close the account.
It depends on the bank you did the CD with, what the terms of the CD you signed up for, and essentially how much you put in the CD to begin with.

If the CD is already in an IRA account, you can transfer it to any other IRA account that will accept your CD. However, unless you have a brokered CD, it ordinarily can't be transfered to another bank or to a brokerage. If you have an ordinary CD that you bought at a bank, it has to stay in the same bank. If the CD is not in an IRA account, you cannot put it into an IRA account. Only cash (including checks, money orders, and electronic funds transfers) can be contributed to an IRA. If you are eligible to put money into an IRA, you will have to wait until the CD matures and cash it out or cash it out early and pay a penalty. Then you can use the cash to make a contribution to an IRA subject to the usual annual limits on contributions.
The interest earned on the CD is taxable to you in the state of Colorado. One way to avoid that is to withdraw the money from the certificate of deposit before any interest is earned. This may be subject to an early withdrawal penalty, check to see if the bank will waive the penalty since this is a payable on death account.
